The Lyricist with an M.Sc.: How Mohkam Singh is Rewriting the Rules of Punjabi Pop
In an industry driven by basslines and viral dance challenges, it is easy to forget that every hit begins with a blank page and a sharp pen. Even rarer is finding that pen in the hands of an international corporate strategist. Meet Mohkam Singh—the UK-based lyricist proving that global management credentials and grassroots Punjabi rhythm are not mutually exclusive.
Born in Punjab in 1996 and an alumnus of Guru Nanak Dev University, Singh spent over five years managing corporate development at Gocool International before moving to Britain to earn his Master's in International Business Management. That corporate discipline now shapes his creative workflow: while many view songwriting as purely spontaneous, Singh approaches the craft with architectural precision, tailoring cadence, vernacular slang, and thematic hooks to the algorithmic realities of global streaming platforms.
His creative breakthrough arrived through a string of independent label hits that quickly caught fire across regional airwaves. Tracks like the 2023 singles "Dashboard" and "Overdose" established his ear for club-ready pacing, but it was 2024's "BP High" (sung by J Attri under B Music) that cemented his reputation, picking up major nominations at both the PTC Punjabi Music Awards and the BritAsia TV Music Awards. Rather than sticking to a single formula, Singh pivoted in 2025 to romantic folk-fusion with "Jhanjra" (sung by
Deepkamal for HA Records), earning critical nods at the Mirchi Music Awards Punjabi for its seamless blend of heritage imagery and modern banter.
By early 2026, Singh's cross-border versatility showed no signs of slowing, as his club anthem "Ghunt Ghunt" alongside Meet Bhuker and Preet Mohit racked up an honors nomination at the Global Punjabi Media & Music Honors. Dividing his time between boardrooms, international transit hubs, and studio soundboards, Mohkam Singh embodies the modern Punjabi polymath—grounded in cultural storytelling, built for a global audience.

From Slum Lanes to a National Vision: Mangan Thomas Rijoy Introduces Desiya Suraksha Party
Chennai, India | October 8, 2026
Desiya Suraksha Party emerges from five years of grassroots work through the Secure Our City campaign, with a focus on safety, housing, education and healthcare.
“Why should a woman feel unsafe in her own street?” This question became the starting point of Secure Our City, a community safety campaign initiated by Mangan Thomas Rijoy (MTR), President of Desiya Suraksha Party (DSP)
According to the campaign's account, the initiative began in Chennai five years ago with a commitment to provide 10,000 free CCTV cameras in selected Indian cities. Working without NGO backing, corporate funding or political support, the campaign reports that it has helped secure 5,000 houses in Chennai's slum communities.
However, years of working closely with residents led MTR to reconsider what safety means for families facing economic hardship.
Living and interacting with communities helped bring wider challenges into focus, including inadequate housing, access to food, healthcare, clothing and education. The experience shaped a broader vision that extends beyond surveillance and neighbourhood security
“A camera cannot secure a hungry stomach. A camera cannot secure a homeless family,” MTR said, describing the thinking behind the next phase of his work
This experience eventually led to the formation of Desiya Suraksha Party (DSP), a political initiative intended, according to its stated mission, to raise questions about public accountability, resource distribution and the living conditions of ordinary citizens.
 
Desiya Suraksha Party's Key Prioritie
DSP has outlined five principal commitments in its proposed social agenda
Housing for every family: A minimum 500-square-foot home for every Indian family.
Dignity and basic necessities: Access to good-quality clothing and essential living conditions.
Free education and healthcare: Education and medical services at international standards, provided free of charge.
A future for every child: A home, family environment and future for children without parental care, with the state acting as guardian where necessary.
Safety for women and children: Recognition of personal safety as a fundamental right rather than merely a government scheme.
These commitments represent the party's stated policy vision. Their implementation would require detailed plans covering funding, administration, eligibility and delivery.
 
A Campaign with a Wider Purpose
The Secure Our City initiative was originally intended to establish a community safety model that could later expand through SecureCam India and potential corporate social responsibility (CSR) funding.
DSP now says the campaign will continue alongside its broader social agenda. Following its first Maanadu, scheduled for December 10, 2026, in Chennai, the party plans to expand the initiative across India.
The campaign also proposes security audits for homes and buildings, with a minimum security guarantee. Further details on implementation and coverage are expected to clarify how this proposal would operate.
 
Beginning in Tamil Nadu and Kerala
 
DSP has identified Tamil Nadu and Kerala as the starting points for its next phase. MTR has invited people interested in community safety and social welfare to learn about the party and its stated objectives.
The party's central message is that public safety involves more than preventing crime. It also encompasses access to shelter, healthcare, education and dignified living conditions.
As DSP prepares for its December gathering, the transition from a neighbourhood CCTV campaign to a broader political platform marks a new stage in MTR's stated public-service journey.
 
About Desiya Suraksha Party
Desiya Suraksha Party (DSP) is led by President Mangan Thomas Rijoy (MTR). Its stated priorities include community safety, housing, education, healthcare, child welfare and public accountability.

Trailer Driving School in Kerala: Master the Reverse That Fails Most Candidates, on A2Z's Own Trailers


A2Z International Heavy Equipment Institute, training drivers and operators in Kerala since 1978, runs normal and container trailer courses on its own vehicles and practice ground, with 19 branches and a main campus at Willingdon Island, Kochi.A2Z International Heavy Equipment Institute runs two trailer courses, one for normal trailers and one for container trailers, aimed at drivers who want work at ports, with logistics companies and in heavy haulage in India and the Gulf. The institute says most candidates underestimate the same two things: the order in which the licences have to be earned, and reversing an articulated vehicle.
The licence is a ladder
A trailer licence is not a standalone licence. It is an endorsement added to an existing heavy vehicle licence, and it sits at the top of a sequence. A driver starts with an LMV licence, adds a transport or commercial endorsement, moves up to a heavy goods vehicle licence (HMV or HTV), and only then qualifies for the trailer endorsement that covers articulated and multi-axle vehicles. Each step generally requires holding the previous one for a qualifying period set by the RTO. Commercial driving in Kerala also needs a separate driver's badge.
"Half the people who call us have planned around a timeline they read online, and then find their licence dates don't qualify them yet," said Aravind, Executive Director of A2Z International Heavy Equipment Institute. "The first thing any trailer driving school in Kerala should do is look at what you hold and when you got it. Then we can tell you your real route, and it saves people months."
What the practical test asks for
The trailer practical tests five things: a pre-trip inspection including the coupling, coupling and uncoupling, controlled manoeuvring and turning with the articulation, reversing, and safe road handling under load. Reversing is where most candidates fail. In reverse, an articulated trailer swings the opposite way to the steering input.
"People expect the highway to be the hard part," Aravind said. "Then you ask a man to reverse a trailer into a bay, and for the first week he turns the wheel the wrong way every time. You can't learn that from a video. You need hours on a real trailer with an instructor next to you telling you what your hands are doing."
Two courses on one owned fleet
A2Z trains on trailers it owns, on a dedicated practice ground, instead of booking time on hired vehicles. Students can choose normal trailer training or container trailer training. Both follow a seven-stage curriculum: vehicle parts, controls and pre-trip checks; coupling and uncoupling; reversing, turning and manoeuvring; container handling and load securing; highway driving, gradients and braking; daily checks and basic maintenance; and licence and assessment preparation.
Graduates receive ISO and Operator Card certification along with guidance on heavy transport licensing. The main campus at Willingdon Island has a hostel for students who travel in.
A trailer driving school in Kerala with its own vehicles can give students more practice. On a hired trailer, time runs out when the booking ends. On an owned one, students keep practising until the reverse is under control.
An institute of firsts since 1978
A2Z opened in 1978. It is the only JCB-authorised operator training institute in Kerala and the state's only fixed tower crane training institute, and it was the first in Kerala to offer imported Zoomlion crane operator training. It owns every machine and vehicle it trains on and works with more than 527 placement partner companies.
Where trailer drivers work
The institute describes trailer driving as one of the better-paying commercial driving categories. Demand comes from Kerala's ports, from logistics corridors across India, and from heavy haulage in the Gulf. Graduates train for roles as trailer drivers, container and port trailer drivers, transport and logistics drivers, and heavy vehicle drivers in India and the Gulf.
Gulf haulage employers usually require a practical trade test. A2Z runs that test at its own Heavy Equipment International Trade Test Centre at Willingdon Island, following the skill verification requirements of GCC countries including Saudi Arabia, the UAE, Qatar and Kuwait. Candidates train and test on the same trailers.
A2Z provides training, assessment and placement assistance. It does not recruit for overseas jobs and refers candidates who want to work abroad to licensed recruiting agents.
Who can join
Entry depends on the licence ladder rather than on education. The minimum age follows RTO norms for heavy vehicles, which is higher than the age for a car licence. Candidates need basic physical fitness and government photo ID and proof of address, and an existing light vehicle licence helps.
Anyone comparing a trailer driving school in Kerala can ask three things: whether the school owns its trailers, whether it offers container trailer training as well as normal trailer training, and whether it can run the trade test that Gulf employers ask for.

आकांक्षा सोसायटी द्वारा भारत के प्रधानमंत्री नरेंद्र मोदी के जन्मदिन विशेष रूप से मनाया गया


 
 
  संभल । आकांक्षा सोसायटी द्वारा भारत के प्रधानमंत्री  नरेंद्र मोदी के जन्मदिन विशेष रूप से मनाया गया। इस अवसर पर सभी सदस्यों ने मोमबत्तियों की रोशनी से 'हैप्पी बर्थडे नरेंद्र मोदी जी' लिखकर प्रधानमंत्री को जन्मदिन की शुभकामनाएँ दीं। सभी ने उनके स्वस्थ, दीर्घायु एवं सफल जीवन की कामना की।
  

  
आकांक्षा सोसायटी की अध्यक्ष श्री मति संगीता भार्गव जी ने बताया कि  श्री नरेंद्र दामोदरदास मोदी का जन्म 17 सितंबर 1950 को गुजरात के वडनगर में हुआ। साधारण परिवार से आने वाले नरेंद्र मोदी का बचपन संघर्षों और कठिन परिश्रम के बीच बीता। उनका जीवन निरंतर परिश्रम, अनुशासन और संगठनात्मक कार्यों से जुड़ा रहा। युवावस्था में उन्होंने देश के विभिन्न हिस्सों की यात्रा की और बाद में राष्ट्रीय स्वयंसेवक संघ से जुड़े। इसके बाद उन्होंने भारतीय जनता पार्टी में संगठनात्मक जिम्मेदारियाँ संभालीं।
  

  
वर्ष 2001 से 2014 तक वे गुजरात के मुख्यमंत्री रहे और वर्ष 2014 में भारत के प्रधानमंत्री बने। इसके बाद 2019 और 2024 में भी उन्होंने प्रधानमंत्री पद की शपथ ली।
  

  
प्रधानमंत्री के रूप में उनके कार्यकाल में स्वच्छ भारत मिशन, जन-धन योजना, डिजिटल इंडिया, मेक इन इंडिया और आत्मनिर्भर भारत सहित अनेक योजनाओं एवं अभियानों पर जोर दिया गया। गरीबों के लिए आवास, बिजली, स्वच्छ जल, खाद्यान्न और स्वास्थ्य सुविधाओं से जुड़े कार्यक्रमों को भी प्रमुखता दी गई।
  

  
प्रधानमंत्री नरेंद्र मोदी की कार्यशैली में अनुशासन, समय के प्रति प्रतिबद्धता, निरंतर कार्य और जनसंपर्क को महत्वपूर्ण माना जाता है। तकनीक, डिजिटल व्यवस्था, स्टार्टअप और नवाचार के क्षेत्र में भी उनके कार्यकाल के दौरान कई पहल हुई हैं।
  

  
अंतरराष्ट्रीय स्तर पर भी भारत की भूमिका को मजबूत करने की दिशा में विभिन्न प्रयास किए गए। भारत की G20 अध्यक्षता, अंतरराष्ट्रीय योग दिवस और International Solar Alliance जैसी पहलों के माध्यम से वैश्विक मंच पर भारत की भागीदारी को बढ़ावा मिला।
  

  
इस अवसर पर आकांक्षा सोसायटी की अध्यक्षा श्रीमती संगीता जी ने प्रधानमंत्री नरेंद्र मोदी को जन्मदिन की शुभकामनाएँ देते हुए कहा कि उनका जीवन संघर्ष, परिश्रम और दृढ़ संकल्प की यात्रा है। उन्होंने कहा कि साधारण परिवार से निकलकर देश के सर्वोच्च लोकतांत्रिक पद तक पहुँचना उनके निरंतर परिश्रम और अनुशासन को दर्शाता है।
  

  
संगीता जी ने कहा कि प्रधानमंत्री का जीवन युवाओं को कठिन परिस्थितियों में भी मेहनत, सकारात्मक सोच और देश के प्रति समर्पण के साथ आगे बढ़ने की प्रेरणा देता है। उन्होंने प्रधानमंत्री नरेंद्र मोदी के स्वस्थ एवं दीर्घायु जीवन की कामना की।
  

  
कार्यक्रम के अंत में आकांक्षा सोसायटी के सदस्यों ने मोमबत्तियों से बनाए जन्मदिन संदेश के माध्यम से प्रधानमंत्री नरेंद्र मोदी को शुभकामनाएँ दीं तथा देश की प्रगति, समृद्धि और उज्ज्वल भविष्य की कामना की। इसमें सभी आकांक्षा सोसायटी के सदस्य शालू काजल प्रिया सिल्की इशिता मनप्रीत अंकिता मीनू गौरव निशा सोनल सरिता शिल्पा दीपा हिमांशी आरती अध्या रूपाली संतोष दीपिका रक्षा अर्शी कुमुद सपना दीक्षा लक्षिता हुमा आदि का सहयोग रहा।

Back Pain: Causes, Warning Signs and Personalized Care
 Learn about back pain, its common symptoms and contributing factors, and explore personalized consultation with a homeo doctor in Hyderabad.
An Introduction to Back Pain
Back pain is a common concern that can affect physical comfort and everyday productivity. Whether it develops after sitting for several hours, physical activity, repetitive work, or an awkward movement, discomfort can make normal tasks more difficult.
When back pain occurs repeatedly, understanding its pattern and possible contributing factors can be an important first step. Consulting a homeo doctor in Hyderabad allows you to discuss your concerns in detail and receive an individualized assessment.
How Can Back Pain Affect You?
Depending on its location and intensity, back discomfort may lead to:
Aching or soreness in the back
Lower-back discomfort
Morning or post-rest stiffness
Muscle tension or tightness
Difficulty bending or turning
Discomfort during walking or standing
Reduced flexibility
Difficulty performing usual activities
Not every episode of back pain has the same cause. Persistent or intense pain should receive appropriate professional evaluation.
Seek prompt medical attention if back pain occurs with significant weakness, numbness, fever, follows a serious injury, or is associated with bladder or bowel changes.
Everyday Factors Linked with Back Discomfort
Your daily routine can influence the way your back feels. Extended desk work, poor sitting posture, limited movement, and an unsuitable workstation may contribute to stiffness.
Other possible contributing factors include sudden physical exertion, repetitive movements, incorrect lifting techniques, muscle strain, and insufficient physical conditioning. Recognizing these patterns can provide useful information during a consultation with a homeo doctor in Hyderabad.
Individualized Homeopathic Consultation
Homeopathic consultation takes an individual-focused approach. A homeo doctor in Hyderabad may discuss the location and character of the discomfort, when it appears, activities that influence it, sleep, stress, lifestyle habits, and relevant health history.
The purpose of a detailed consultation is to understand the person's overall symptom pattern and wellbeing rather than concentrating solely on one painful area.
Along with professional guidance, maintaining good posture, avoiding prolonged periods in one position, taking regular movement breaks, staying suitably active, and following healthy daily habits can support general back health.

Spiritual Homeopathy in Hyderabad
Spiritual Homeopathy offers personalized homeopathic consultations for individuals experiencing back pain and other health concerns. The consultation approach considers individual symptoms, lifestyle, health background, and overall wellbeing.

Nature Hospitality Expands Reach With New International Tour Packages


INDIA — Nature Hospitality, a travel and hospitality provider that has spent over a decade building its name around domestic getaways in Delhi, Bangalore, Mumbai, Chennai, Ahmedabad, Hyderabad and other Indian destinations, has now widened its portfolio to include a full lineup of international tour packages.The company, established in 2014, built its early reputation on curated trips to the Himalayan belt, Wayanad, Munnar, and island destinations such as Lakshadweep. Its move into international travel marks a shift for a brand that has largely been associated with domestic holidays until now.
The new offering includes Paris tour packages built around the Eiffel Tower, the Louvre Museum, and the Seine River, along with broader Europe tour packages covering France, Switzerland, Italy, Germany, and Spain. Travelers looking specifically at the Alps and lake country can also choose dedicated Switzerland tour packages.
Beyond Europe, Nature Hospitality has added USA tour packages featuring New York, Las Vegas, Los Angeles, and Miami, as well as Australia tour packages built around Sydney, Melbourne, and the Gold Coast. The company has also introduced Japan tour packages covering Tokyo, Kyoto, Osaka, and Mount Fuji, giving travelers a route into a market that combines modern cities with traditional culture.
For travelers drawn to desert landscapes and city luxury, the company has rolled out Dubai tour packages that include desert safaris, shopping, and sightseeing alongside stays at upscale hotels. South Africa tour packages round out the list, taking travelers through Cape Town, Johannesburg, and wildlife safaris across the country's landscapes.
"Our clients have been asking for the same kind of planning and support they got on their India trips, but for international destinations," the company said. "This expansion is our way of answering that demand without changing how we work with people."
That approach includes honeymoon and family packages, which the company has customized for couples, families, and groups traveling together. Nature Hospitality is also continuing its practice of building personalized itineraries from scratch, based on a traveler's destination, budget, travel dates, and specific preferences, rather than relying only on fixed departures.
Industry watchers have pointed to a broader trend behind this kind of expansion. Indian travelers have increasingly moved from domestic weekend trips toward longer international holidays over the past few years, a shift that has pushed many established domestic operators to add global destinations to their catalogs.
Nature Hospitality's past reviews, many tied to its Himalayan and Kerala tours, have often highlighted the hands-on support its team provides during a trip, including arranging local transport and adjusting plans on short notice. The company says it intends to carry that same level of involvement into its international bookings, from visa guidance to on-ground coordination at each destination.
The company has not limited its international packages to a single style of travel. Its catalog spans romantic city breaks in Paris, adventure-driven safaris in South Africa, beach and city combinations in Australia, and cultural circuits through Japan, giving it a spread that can serve very different types of travelers under one brand.
With this expansion, Nature Hospitality positions itself to compete for a segment of travelers who previously would have booked international trips through separate specialist agencies for each region. By keeping planning, budgeting, and support under one roof, the company is betting that convenience will be as strong a draw as the destinations themselves.
Nature Hospitality says more destinations and packages are expected to be added to its international lineup in the coming months, as it continues building out this side of the business alongside its existing domestic operations.
For those interested in Paris, Europe, USA, Australia, South Africa, Japan, Dubai, Switzerland, honeymoon and family holidays, or a fully customized international itinerary, Nature Hospitality can be reached through its official website and customer support channels.

उन्होंने बताया कि इस विषय पर मुख्य निर्वाचन पदाधिकारी कार्यालय द्वारा देश-विदेश के विभिन्न संस्थानों, रिसर्च स्कॉलर्स एवं निर्वाचन विषय के शिक्षाविदों से शोध-पत्रों के एब्सट्रैक्ट्स आमंत्रित किए गए थे। कुल 230 एब्सट्रैक्ट्स प्राप्त हुए, जिनमें नॉलेज पार्टनर्स की टीम द्वारा मूल्यांकन के बाद 80 एब्सट्रैक्ट्स का चयन किया गया। इसके अतिरिक्त विभिन्न राज्यों के विषय-विशेषज्ञों से भी शोध-पत्र आमंत्रित किए गए। पूरी प्रक्रिया के बाद कुल 57 शोध-पत्रों को अंतिम रूप से चयनित किया गया है, जिन्हें सम्मेलन के विभिन्न तकनीकी सत्रों में विषयवार प्रस्तुत किया जाएगा।

मुख्य निर्वाचन पदाधिकारी ने कहा कि शुद्ध, समावेशी, अद्यतन एवं विश्वसनीय मतदाता सूची लोकतांत्रिक निर्वाचन व्यवस्था का महत्वपूर्ण आधार है। सम्मेलन में मतदाता पंजीकरण एवं मतदाता सूची निर्माण से जुड़े प्रशासनिक, कानूनी, सामाजिक, तकनीकी एवं अकादमिक पहलुओं के साथ व्यावहारिक चुनौतियों और बेहतर कार्यप्रणालियों पर विचार-विमर्श किया जाएगा।

उन्होंने बताया कि दो दिनों के तकनीकी एवं अकादमिक सत्रों में मतदाता पंजीकरण, निर्वाचक नामावली प्रबंधन, डिजिटाइजेशन, मतदाताओं की समावेशिता तथा लोकतांत्रिक भागीदारी से जुड़े उभरते विषयों पर चर्चा होगी। इसमें निर्वाचन प्रबंधन से जुड़े पदाधिकारी, नीति-निर्माता, विधि विशेषज्ञ, शिक्षाविद्, शोधकर्ता, पत्रकार एवं सिविल सोसाइटी के प्रतिनिधि सहभागिता करेंगे।

श्री के. रवि कुमार ने कहा कि सम्मेलन के माध्यम से निर्वाचन प्रबंधन से जुड़े व्यावहारिक अनुभवों और अकादमिक शोध को एक मंच पर लाने का प्रयास किया गया है। देश-विदेश के अनुभवों, शोध-पत्रों एवं विशेषज्ञों के विचारों से मतदाता पंजीकरण और मतदाता सूची प्रबंधन की वर्तमान एवं भविष्य की चुनौतियों को समझने तथा बेहतर कार्यप्रणालियों की पहचान करने में सहायता मिलेगी। सम्मेलन से प्राप्त निष्कर्ष एवं सुझाव भविष्य में निर्वाचन प्रबंधन की प्रक्रियाओं को और अधिक प्रभावी, समावेशी एवं विश्वसनीय बनाने में उपयोगी सिद्ध होंगे।

From Batamaloo to the Podium: The Icestock Journey of Faheem Masood Shah
There are athletes who chase medals, and there are athletes who build a movement. In Jammu & Kashmir, Faheem Masood Shah has quietly become both.
Faheem's latest outing came at the Himadari Ice Rink in Dehradun, an international-standard facility that hosted a national IcestockSport tournament featuring squads from Karnataka, Maharashtra, Chandigarh, Gujarat, Goa, Uttarakhand, Delhi and other states. Leading Jammu & Kashmir as captain, Faheem returned home with two gold medals, two silver medals and a bronze — a result that surprised no one who has followed his decade-long career on the ice.
Born in 1992 in Batamaloo, Srinagar, Faheem's introduction to competitive sport had nothing to do with ice. Football, cricket, rugby and athletics filled his childhood, sharpening the reflexes and competitive instinct that would later define his icestock game. It was during a snow rugby event in Gulmarg in 2014 that he first picked up an icestock — handed to him, almost by chance, by Manfred Schafer, then head of the International Federation of IcestockSport. His first throw hit the target. He has barely stopped since.
What followed was over a decade of steady, often unglamorous graft: training on poorly maintained ice, competing with borrowed gear, and traveling to international meets on shoestring budgets, all in a country where winter sports infrastructure remains thin, and in a region where it is thinner still.
The results, however, tell their own story. Faheem has represented India in more than 200 international matches and picked up medals across three continents. A career highlight came at the 2025 World Icestock Championship in Kapfenberg & Stanz, Austria, where he helped India to a team bronze medal and a fourth-place finish in Team Long Distance, lifting India to a Top-7 world ranking in the Team Game category — one of the strongest results posted by an Indian side at that level.
Away from the rink, Faheem has built an equally serious second career. He holds a degree in Computer Engineering and a master's degree in Artificial Intelligence and Data Science, has worked as a programmer and certified UX designer, and is an independent researcher with contributions to published research. Few of his rivals on the ice, in India or abroad, carry a resume quite like it.
Yet those who know him say it is his work off the rink that matters most to him. Through the Vaadi E Kashmir Foundation, Faheem is involved in youth development, digital literacy and community sports programmes across the Valley, and is a familiar sight coaching children on makeshift rinks after his own competitions wrap up. Kids in Gulmarg and Srinagar follow his results closely; for many, he has become proof that a path exists — even from a region with little winter sports tradition and even less support.
"We're not that far behind," Faheem has said of India's standing in the sport. "We just need people to believe in us."
With the Dehradun tournament now added to an already long list of national titles, Faheem's ambitions have not slowed. The European Championships are next on his calendar, with Olympic qualification the ultimate target — a goal he has framed not as a personal milestone, but as a message to "every kid who thinks they can't make it because they're from Kashmir."

The Lyricist with an M.Sc.: How Mohkam Singh is Rewriting the Rules of Punjabi Pop
In an industry driven by basslines and viral dance challenges, it is easy to forget that every hit begins with a blank page and a sharp pen. Even rarer is finding that pen in the hands of an international corporate strategist. Meet Mohkam Singh—the UK-based lyricist proving that global management credentials and grassroots Punjabi rhythm are not mutually exclusive.
Born in Punjab in 1996 and an alumnus of Guru Nanak Dev University, Singh spent over five years managing corporate development at Gocool International before moving to Britain to earn his Master's in International Business Management. That corporate discipline now shapes his creative workflow: while many view songwriting as purely spontaneous, Singh approaches the craft with architectural precision, tailoring cadence, vernacular slang, and thematic hooks to the algorithmic realities of global streaming platforms.
His creative breakthrough arrived through a string of independent label hits that quickly caught fire across regional airwaves. Tracks like the 2023 singles "Dashboard" and "Overdose" established his ear for club-ready pacing, but it was 2024's "BP High" (sung by J Attri under B Music) that cemented his reputation, picking up major nominations at both the PTC Punjabi Music Awards and the BritAsia TV Music Awards. Rather than sticking to a single formula, Singh pivoted in 2025 to romantic folk-fusion with "Jhanjra" (sung by
Deepkamal for HA Records), earning critical nods at the Mirchi Music Awards Punjabi for its seamless blend of heritage imagery and modern banter.
By early 2026, Singh's cross-border versatility showed no signs of slowing, as his club anthem "Ghunt Ghunt" alongside Meet Bhuker and Preet Mohit racked up an honors nomination at the Global Punjabi Media & Music Honors. Dividing his time between boardrooms, international transit hubs, and studio soundboards, Mohkam Singh embodies the modern Punjabi polymath—grounded in cultural storytelling, built for a global audience.

From Slum Lanes to a National Vision: Mangan Thomas Rijoy Introduces Desiya Suraksha Party
Chennai, India | October 8, 2026
Desiya Suraksha Party emerges from five years of grassroots work through the Secure Our City campaign, with a focus on safety, housing, education and healthcare.
“Why should a woman feel unsafe in her own street?” This question became the starting point of Secure Our City, a community safety campaign initiated by Mangan Thomas Rijoy (MTR), President of Desiya Suraksha Party (DSP)
According to the campaign's account, the initiative began in Chennai five years ago with a commitment to provide 10,000 free CCTV cameras in selected Indian cities. Working without NGO backing, corporate funding or political support, the campaign reports that it has helped secure 5,000 houses in Chennai's slum communities.
However, years of working closely with residents led MTR to reconsider what safety means for families facing economic hardship.
Living and interacting with communities helped bring wider challenges into focus, including inadequate housing, access to food, healthcare, clothing and education. The experience shaped a broader vision that extends beyond surveillance and neighbourhood security
“A camera cannot secure a hungry stomach. A camera cannot secure a homeless family,” MTR said, describing the thinking behind the next phase of his work
This experience eventually led to the formation of Desiya Suraksha Party (DSP), a political initiative intended, according to its stated mission, to raise questions about public accountability, resource distribution and the living conditions of ordinary citizens.
 
Desiya Suraksha Party's Key Prioritie
DSP has outlined five principal commitments in its proposed social agenda
Housing for every family: A minimum 500-square-foot home for every Indian family.
Dignity and basic necessities: Access to good-quality clothing and essential living conditions.
Free education and healthcare: Education and medical services at international standards, provided free of charge.
A future for every child: A home, family environment and future for children without parental care, with the state acting as guardian where necessary.
Safety for women and children: Recognition of personal safety as a fundamental right rather than merely a government scheme.
These commitments represent the party's stated policy vision. Their implementation would require detailed plans covering funding, administration, eligibility and delivery.
 
A Campaign with a Wider Purpose
The Secure Our City initiative was originally intended to establish a community safety model that could later expand through SecureCam India and potential corporate social responsibility (CSR) funding.
DSP now says the campaign will continue alongside its broader social agenda. Following its first Maanadu, scheduled for December 10, 2026, in Chennai, the party plans to expand the initiative across India.
The campaign also proposes security audits for homes and buildings, with a minimum security guarantee. Further details on implementation and coverage are expected to clarify how this proposal would operate.
 
Beginning in Tamil Nadu and Kerala
 
DSP has identified Tamil Nadu and Kerala as the starting points for its next phase. MTR has invited people interested in community safety and social welfare to learn about the party and its stated objectives.
The party's central message is that public safety involves more than preventing crime. It also encompasses access to shelter, healthcare, education and dignified living conditions.
As DSP prepares for its December gathering, the transition from a neighbourhood CCTV campaign to a broader political platform marks a new stage in MTR's stated public-service journey.

Desiya Suraksha Party (DSP) is led by President Mangan Thomas Rijoy (MTR). Its stated priorities include community safety, housing, education, healthcare, child welfare and public accountability.

Trailer Driving School in Kerala: Master the Reverse That Fails Most Candidates, on A2Z's Own Trailers


A2Z International Heavy Equipment Institute, training drivers and operators in Kerala since 1978, runs normal and container trailer courses on its own vehicles and practice ground, with 19 branches and a main campus at Willingdon Island, Kochi.A2Z International Heavy Equipment Institute runs two trailer courses, one for normal trailers and one for container trailers, aimed at drivers who want work at ports, with logistics companies and in heavy haulage in India and the Gulf. The institute says most candidates underestimate the same two things: the order in which the licences have to be earned, and reversing an articulated vehicle.
The licence is a ladder
A trailer licence is not a standalone licence. It is an endorsement added to an existing heavy vehicle licence, and it sits at the top of a sequence. A driver starts with an LMV licence, adds a transport or commercial endorsement, moves up to a heavy goods vehicle licence (HMV or HTV), and only then qualifies for the trailer endorsement that covers articulated and multi-axle vehicles. Each step generally requires holding the previous one for a qualifying period set by the RTO. Commercial driving in Kerala also needs a separate driver's badge.
"Half the people who call us have planned around a timeline they read online, and then find their licence dates don't qualify them yet," said Aravind, Executive Director of A2Z International Heavy Equipment Institute. "The first thing any trailer driving school in Kerala should do is look at what you hold and when you got it. Then we can tell you your real route, and it saves people months."
What the practical test asks for
The trailer practical tests five things: a pre-trip inspection including the coupling, coupling and uncoupling, controlled manoeuvring and turning with the articulation, reversing, and safe road handling under load. Reversing is where most candidates fail. In reverse, an articulated trailer swings the opposite way to the steering input.
"People expect the highway to be the hard part," Aravind said. "Then you ask a man to reverse a trailer into a bay, and for the first week he turns the wheel the wrong way every time. You can't learn that from a video. You need hours on a real trailer with an instructor next to you telling you what your hands are doing."
Two courses on one owned fleet
A2Z trains on trailers it owns, on a dedicated practice ground, instead of booking time on hired vehicles. Students can choose normal trailer training or container trailer training. Both follow a seven-stage curriculum: vehicle parts, controls and pre-trip checks; coupling and uncoupling; reversing, turning and manoeuvring; container handling and load securing; highway driving, gradients and braking; daily checks and basic maintenance; and licence and assessment preparation.
Graduates receive ISO and Operator Card certification along with guidance on heavy transport licensing. The main campus at Willingdon Island has a hostel for students who travel in.
A trailer driving school in Kerala with its own vehicles can give students more practice. On a hired trailer, time runs out when the booking ends. On an owned one, students keep practising until the reverse is under control.
An institute of firsts since 1978
A2Z opened in 1978. It is the only JCB-authorised operator training institute in Kerala and the state's only fixed tower crane training institute, and it was the first in Kerala to offer imported Zoomlion crane operator training. It owns every machine and vehicle it trains on and works with more than 527 placement partner companies.
Where trailer drivers work
The institute describes trailer driving as one of the better-paying commercial driving categories. Demand comes from Kerala's ports, from logistics corridors across India, and from heavy haulage in the Gulf. Graduates train for roles as trailer drivers, container and port trailer drivers, transport and logistics drivers, and heavy vehicle drivers in India and the Gulf.
Gulf haulage employers usually require a practical trade test. A2Z runs that test at its own Heavy Equipment International Trade Test Centre at Willingdon Island, following the skill verification requirements of GCC countries including Saudi Arabia, the UAE, Qatar and Kuwait. Candidates train and test on the same trailers.
A2Z provides training, assessment and placement assistance. It does not recruit for overseas jobs and refers candidates who want to work abroad to licensed recruiting agents.
Who can join
Entry depends on the licence ladder rather than on education. The minimum age follows RTO norms for heavy vehicles, which is higher than the age for a car licence. Candidates need basic physical fitness and government photo ID and proof of address, and an existing light vehicle licence helps.
Anyone comparing a trailer driving school in Kerala can ask three things: whether the school owns its trailers, whether it offers container trailer training as well as normal trailer training, and whether it can run the trade test that Gulf employers ask for.

आकांक्षा सोसायटी द्वारा भारत के प्रधानमंत्री नरेंद्र मोदी के जन्मदिन विशेष रूप से मनाया गया


 
 
  संभल । आकांक्षा सोसायटी द्वारा भारत के प्रधानमंत्री  नरेंद्र मोदी के जन्मदिन विशेष रूप से मनाया गया। इस अवसर पर सभी सदस्यों ने मोमबत्तियों की रोशनी से 'हैप्पी बर्थडे नरेंद्र मोदी जी' लिखकर प्रधानमंत्री को जन्मदिन की शुभकामनाएँ दीं। सभी ने उनके स्वस्थ, दीर्घायु एवं सफल जीवन की कामना की।
  

  
आकांक्षा सोसायटी की अध्यक्ष श्री मति संगीता भार्गव जी ने बताया कि  श्री नरेंद्र दामोदरदास मोदी का जन्म 17 सितंबर 1950 को गुजरात के वडनगर में हुआ। साधारण परिवार से आने वाले नरेंद्र मोदी का बचपन संघर्षों और कठिन परिश्रम के बीच बीता। उनका जीवन निरंतर परिश्रम, अनुशासन और संगठनात्मक कार्यों से जुड़ा रहा। युवावस्था में उन्होंने देश के विभिन्न हिस्सों की यात्रा की और बाद में राष्ट्रीय स्वयंसेवक संघ से जुड़े। इसके बाद उन्होंने भारतीय जनता पार्टी में संगठनात्मक जिम्मेदारियाँ संभालीं।
  

  
वर्ष 2001 से 2014 तक वे गुजरात के मुख्यमंत्री रहे और वर्ष 2014 में भारत के प्रधानमंत्री बने। इसके बाद 2019 और 2024 में भी उन्होंने प्रधानमंत्री पद की शपथ ली।
  

  
प्रधानमंत्री के रूप में उनके कार्यकाल में स्वच्छ भारत मिशन, जन-धन योजना, डिजिटल इंडिया, मेक इन इंडिया और आत्मनिर्भर भारत सहित अनेक योजनाओं एवं अभियानों पर जोर दिया गया। गरीबों के लिए आवास, बिजली, स्वच्छ जल, खाद्यान्न और स्वास्थ्य सुविधाओं से जुड़े कार्यक्रमों को भी प्रमुखता दी गई।
  

  
प्रधानमंत्री नरेंद्र मोदी की कार्यशैली में अनुशासन, समय के प्रति प्रतिबद्धता, निरंतर कार्य और जनसंपर्क को महत्वपूर्ण माना जाता है। तकनीक, डिजिटल व्यवस्था, स्टार्टअप और नवाचार के क्षेत्र में भी उनके कार्यकाल के दौरान कई पहल हुई हैं।
  

  
अंतरराष्ट्रीय स्तर पर भी भारत की भूमिका को मजबूत करने की दिशा में विभिन्न प्रयास किए गए। भारत की G20 अध्यक्षता, अंतरराष्ट्रीय योग दिवस और International Solar Alliance जैसी पहलों के माध्यम से वैश्विक मंच पर भारत की भागीदारी को बढ़ावा मिला।
  

  
इस अवसर पर आकांक्षा सोसायटी की अध्यक्षा श्रीमती संगीता जी ने प्रधानमंत्री नरेंद्र मोदी को जन्मदिन की शुभकामनाएँ देते हुए कहा कि उनका जीवन संघर्ष, परिश्रम और दृढ़ संकल्प की यात्रा है। उन्होंने कहा कि साधारण परिवार से निकलकर देश के सर्वोच्च लोकतांत्रिक पद तक पहुँचना उनके निरंतर परिश्रम और अनुशासन को दर्शाता है।
  

  
संगीता जी ने कहा कि प्रधानमंत्री का जीवन युवाओं को कठिन परिस्थितियों में भी मेहनत, सकारात्मक सोच और देश के प्रति समर्पण के साथ आगे बढ़ने की प्रेरणा देता है। उन्होंने प्रधानमंत्री नरेंद्र मोदी के स्वस्थ एवं दीर्घायु जीवन की कामना की।

Back Pain: Causes, Warning Signs and Personalized Care
 Learn about back pain, its common symptoms and contributing factors, and explore personalized consultation with a homeo doctor in Hyderabad.
An Introduction to Back Pain
Back pain is a common concern that can affect physical comfort and everyday productivity. Whether it develops after sitting for several hours, physical activity, repetitive work, or an awkward movement, discomfort can make normal tasks more difficult.
When back pain occurs repeatedly, understanding its pattern and possible contributing factors can be an important first step. Consulting a homeo doctor in Hyderabad allows you to discuss your concerns in detail and receive an individualized assessment.
How Can Back Pain Affect You?
Depending on its location and intensity, back discomfort may lead to:
Aching or soreness in the back
Lower-back discomfort
Morning or post-rest stiffness
Muscle tension or tightness
Difficulty bending or turning
Discomfort during walking or standing
Reduced flexibility
Difficulty performing usual activities
Not every episode of back pain has the same cause. Persistent or intense pain should receive appropriate professional evaluation.
Seek prompt medical attention if back pain occurs with significant weakness, numbness, fever, follows a serious injury, or is associated with bladder or bowel changes.
Everyday Factors Linked with Back Discomfort
Your daily routine can influence the way your back feels. Extended desk work, poor sitting posture, limited movement, and an unsuitable workstation may contribute to stiffness.
Other possible contributing factors include sudden physical exertion, repetitive movements, incorrect lifting techniques, muscle strain, and insufficient physical conditioning. Recognizing these patterns can provide useful information during a consultation with a homeo doctor in Hyderabad.
Individualized Homeopathic Consultation
Homeopathic consultation takes an individual-focused approach. A homeo doctor in Hyderabad may discuss the location and character of the discomfort, when it appears, activities that influence it, sleep, stress, lifestyle habits, and relevant health history.
The purpose of a detailed consultation is to understand the person's overall symptom pattern and wellbeing rather than concentrating solely on one painful area.
Along with professional guidance, maintaining good posture, avoiding prolonged periods in one position, taking regular movement breaks, staying suitably active, and following healthy daily habits can support general back health.

Spiritual Homeopathy in Hyderabad
Spiritual Homeopathy offers personalized homeopathic consultations for individuals experiencing back pain and other health concerns. The consultation approach considers individual symptoms, lifestyle, health background, and overall wellbeing.

Nature Hospitality Expands Reach With New International Tour Packages


INDIA — Nature Hospitality, a travel and hospitality provider that has spent over a decade building its name around domestic getaways in Delhi, Bangalore, Mumbai, Chennai, Ahmedabad, Hyderabad and other Indian destinations, has now widened its portfolio to include a full lineup of international tour packages.The company, established in 2014, built its early reputation on curated trips to the Himalayan belt, Wayanad, Munnar, and island destinations such as Lakshadweep. Its move into international travel marks a shift for a brand that has largely been associated with domestic holidays until now.
The new offering includes Paris tour packages built around the Eiffel Tower, the Louvre Museum, and the Seine River, along with broader Europe tour packages covering France, Switzerland, Italy, Germany, and Spain. Travelers looking specifically at the Alps and lake country can also choose dedicated Switzerland tour packages.
Beyond Europe, Nature Hospitality has added USA tour packages featuring New York, Las Vegas, Los Angeles, and Miami, as well as Australia tour packages built around Sydney, Melbourne, and the Gold Coast. The company has also introduced Japan tour packages covering Tokyo, Kyoto, Osaka, and Mount Fuji, giving travelers a route into a market that combines modern cities with traditional culture.
For travelers drawn to desert landscapes and city luxury, the company has rolled out Dubai tour packages that include desert safaris, shopping, and sightseeing alongside stays at upscale hotels. South Africa tour packages round out the list, taking travelers through Cape Town, Johannesburg, and wildlife safaris across the country's landscapes.
"Our clients have been asking for the same kind of planning and support they got on their India trips, but for international destinations," the company said. "This expansion is our way of answering that demand without changing how we work with people."
That approach includes honeymoon and family packages, which the company has customized for couples, families, and groups traveling together. Nature Hospitality is also continuing its practice of building personalized itineraries from scratch, based on a traveler's destination, budget, travel dates, and specific preferences, rather than relying only on fixed departures.
Industry watchers have pointed to a broader trend behind this kind of expansion. Indian travelers have increasingly moved from domestic weekend trips toward longer international holidays over the past few years, a shift that has pushed many established domestic operators to add global destinations to their catalogs.
Nature Hospitality's past reviews, many tied to its Himalayan and Kerala tours, have often highlighted the hands-on support its team provides during a trip, including arranging local transport and adjusting plans on short notice. The company says it intends to carry that same level of involvement into its international bookings, from visa guidance to on-ground coordination at each destination.
The company has not limited its international packages to a single style of travel. Its catalog spans romantic city breaks in Paris, adventure-driven safaris in South Africa, beach and city combinations in Australia, and cultural circuits through Japan, giving it a spread that can serve very different types of travelers under one brand.
With this expansion, Nature Hospitality positions itself to compete for a segment of travelers who previously would have booked international trips through separate specialist agencies for each region. By keeping planning, budgeting, and support under one roof, the company is betting that convenience will be as strong a draw as the destinations themselves.
Nature Hospitality says more destinations and packages are expected to be added to its international lineup in the coming months, as it continues building out this side of the business alongside its existing domestic operations.
For those interested in Paris, Europe, USA, Australia, South Africa, Japan, Dubai, Switzerland, honeymoon and family holidays, or a fully customized international itinerary, Nature Hospitality can be reached through its official website and customer support channels.

From Batamaloo to the Podium: The Icestock Journey of Faheem Masood Shah
There are athletes who chase medals, and there are athletes who build a movement. In Jammu & Kashmir, Faheem Masood Shah has quietly become both.
Faheem's latest outing came at the Himadari Ice Rink in Dehradun, an international-standard facility that hosted a national IcestockSport tournament featuring squads from Karnataka, Maharashtra, Chandigarh, Gujarat, Goa, Uttarakhand, Delhi and other states. Leading Jammu & Kashmir as captain, Faheem returned home with two gold medals, two silver medals and a bronze — a result that surprised no one who has followed his decade-long career on the ice.
Born in 1992 in Batamaloo, Srinagar, Faheem's introduction to competitive sport had nothing to do with ice. Football, cricket, rugby and athletics filled his childhood, sharpening the reflexes and competitive instinct that would later define his icestock game. It was during a snow rugby event in Gulmarg in 2014 that he first picked up an icestock — handed to him, almost by chance, by Manfred Schafer, then head of the International Federation of IcestockSport. His first throw hit the target. He has barely stopped since.
What followed was over a decade of steady, often unglamorous graft: training on poorly maintained ice, competing with borrowed gear, and traveling to international meets on shoestring budgets, all in a country where winter sports infrastructure remains thin, and in a region where it is thinner still.
The results, however, tell their own story. Faheem has represented India in more than 200 international matches and picked up medals across three continents. A career highlight came at the 2025 World Icestock Championship in Kapfenberg & Stanz, Austria, where he helped India to a team bronze medal and a fourth-place finish in Team Long Distance, lifting India to a Top-7 world ranking in the Team Game category — one of the strongest results posted by an Indian side at that level.
Away from the rink, Faheem has built an equally serious second career. He holds a degree in Computer Engineering and a master's degree in Artificial Intelligence and Data Science, has worked as a programmer and certified UX designer, and is an independent researcher with contributions to published research. Few of his rivals on the ice, in India or abroad, carry a resume quite like it.
Yet those who know him say it is his work off the rink that matters most to him. Through the Vaadi E Kashmir Foundation, Faheem is involved in youth development, digital literacy and community sports programmes across the Valley, and is a familiar sight coaching children on makeshift rinks after his own competitions wrap up. Kids in Gulmarg and Srinagar follow his results closely; for many, he has become proof that a path exists — even from a region with little winter sports tradition and even less support.
"We're not that far behind," Faheem has said of India's standing in the sport. "We just need people to believe in us."
With the Dehradun tournament now added to an already long list of national titles, Faheem's ambitions have not slowed. The European Championships are next on his calendar, with Olympic qualification the ultimate target — a goal he has framed not as a personal milestone, but as a message to "every kid who thinks they can't make it because they're from Kashmir."
